Primary Vitrectomy versus Tap and Inject for Fungal Endophthalmitis: Meta-Analysis and Comparison with Data from a Reference Centre
CONCLUSIONS: Based on the findings from the literature and the reference centre, T&I is noninferior to PPV. This is the first meta-analysis in the literature evaluating these effects in FE. It is necessary to execute new prospective randomised controlled studies in patients with endophthalmitis.PMID:38489503 | DOI:10.1080/09273948.2024.2322026 (Source: Ocular Immunology and Inflammation)

Epidemiology of Orbital Inflammatory Disease: An AAO IRIS Registry Study
CONCLUSIONS: This study assessed the epidemiology, diagnostic patterns, and treatment patterns for orbital inflammation through the AAO IRIS registry. Practise patterns suggest a relatively low overall rate of imaging and laboratory studies compared to biopsies, although this certainly under-represents the actual number of imaging and laboratory studies and exemplifies the inherent imprecision of using a large database. However, the methodology of this study provides a framework of approaching the IRIS registry for oculoplastic research.PMID:38489590 | DOI:10.1080/09273948.2024.2322013 (Source: Ocular Immunology and Inflammation)

Ocular Involvement in Systemic Sclerosis: Updated Review and New Insights on Microvascular Impairment
Ocul Immunol Inflamm. 2024 Mar 11:1-8. doi: 10.1080/09273948.2024.2308030. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic multisystemic disease characterized by immunological activation, diffuse vasculopathy, and generalized fibrosis exhibiting a variety of symptoms. A recognized precursor of SSc is Raynaud's phenomenon, which is part of the very early disease of systemic sclerosis (VEDOSS) in combination with nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) impairment. The pathophysiology of ocular involvement, alterations in internal organs, and body integumentary system involvement in SSc patients are complicated...

Systemic and Ocular Manifestations of Arboviral Infections: A Review
CONCLUSION: Emerging arboviral diseases should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ocular inflammatory conditions in patients living in or returning from endemic regions. Early clinical consideration followed by confirmatory testing can limit or prevent unnecessary treatments for non-arboviral causes of ocular inflammation. Prevention of these infections is crucial.PMID:38441549 | DOI:10.1080/09273948.2024.2320724 (Source: Ocular Immunology and Inflammation)
